PHOTOS: Construction Walls Erected at EPCOT World Nature Neighborhood

On a recent monorail ride around EPCOT, we noticed some new construction walls erected in EPCOT World Nature. For those unaware of the recent changes, what was formerly known as Future World has been split into three neighborhoods: World Nature, World Celebration, and World Discovery.

As you can see, construction walls enclose a tree and some planters.

Like the other construction walls at EPCOT, the walls in World Nature are black and reinforced with cinderblocks.

Disney has not announced a new project in this area of EPCOT. We will keep you posted on the progress and any new developments.

The area is across from the future site of the Moana-inspired Journey of Water walkthrough attraction, though it’s unclear if the new construction is related.

These particular walls have not yet been labeled with directional signs like the others you see in the background.

We rode the Monorail the next day and noticed some changes.

One of the planters has been completely cleared of flowers and is now just full of dirt.

Some construction materials are visible in the planter and on the ground to the side.

For more EPCOT construction news, take a look at the work on the upcoming Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind.

New United Kingdom Pavilion Floral Collection Springs into EPCOT

We stopped by the United Kingdom Pavilion in EPCOT and uncovered a new collection of floral UK apparel and home decor. We showed you the cute floral ears earlier today, and now it’s time to check out the rest of the collection.

Floral United Kingdom Tank Top – $29.99

This pink tank top has a floral teapot with, “Fancy a Cuppa?” printed inside it.

“United Kingdom” is printed underneath the teapot in white script, with EPCOT World Showcase in even smaller print at the bottom.

The back of the tank top is plain pink.

Floral United Kingdom Leggings – $39.99

The print on these leggings features various flowers along with a Union Jack bow.

Some of the flowers on the pants form the outline of Minnie Mouse’s head.

These would match well with the UK Floral ear headband you can see below them.

United Kingdom Queen of the Kingdom Tee – $36.99

The “Queen of the Kingdom” tee has a floral outline of Minnie Mouse’s head with a Union Jack bow.

Butterflies surround the Minnie Mouse head, giving the shirt an even more springtime feel.

The lace at the bottom of the tee elevates it.

The back of the tee is plain blue but still has the lace at the bottom.

One of the sleeves has “United Kingdom EPCOT World Showcase” printed on it.

Floral United Kingdom Tee – $36.99

This shirt features a Union Jack UK print, with “United Kingdom” in blue script below the floral UK.

Blue and red flowers form the letters in “UK.”

The back of the tee is plain white.

Here you can see the scallop detail on the sides of the tee.

EPCOT World Showcase is printed on one of the sleeves in dark blue.

United Kingdom Floral Tee for Kids – $24.99

The pink youth tee features Minnie Mouse dressed up and drinking a cup of tea.

Underneath Minnie, “United Kingdom” is written in purple script.

The back of the tee is plain pink.

United Kingdom Floral Skirt – $78

The floral skirt has the same Minnie Mouse head outline as the leggings, which is repeated along the hem.

This pull-on skirt has a red sash tie at the waist.

Between Minnie Mouse heads we have more of the same blue, pink, red, and purple flowers.

Dishtowel set – $19.99

Above you can see both dishtowels in the set: one light blue, one pink.

The light blue towel has the floral teapot with “Fancy a Cuppa?” on it.

“United Kingdom” is printed on the blue towel and flowers are found on the bottom.

The pink has the Minnie Mouse head floral outline seen throughout this collection.

United Kingdom Floral Magnet – $12.99

The magnet is a Minnie Mouse head outline with flowers throughout.

United Kingdom Floral Water Bottle – $22.99

The water bottle is made of clear plastic and features flowers throughout.

It says “United Kingdom” in red script on one side.

And then we see “Queen of the Kingdom” on the other side.

The bottle has a flip-top with a drinking spout.

The lid shape lends itself to carrying the bottle easily.

Do you see the hidden Mickeys in the flowers?

United Kingdom Floral Tumbler – $19.99

Here we again have the Minnie Mouse outline composed of flowers with a Union Jack bow.

This shimmery pink cup is acrylic.

The back indicates that the cup is not microwave or dishwasher safe. It must be hand washed.

It comes with a clear lid.

United Kingdom Floral Teapot – $34.99

The teapot has an image of a teapot surrounded by flowers with hidden Mickeys and says, “Fancy a Cuppa?”

The lid has floral accents, again with adorable hidden Mickeys.

The other side of the teapot has the image from the youth tee of Minnie sipping her tea.

“Fancy a Cuppa?” is British slang for “Would you like a cup of tea?”

Plastic protects the lid and spout for transporting the teapot home.

This teapot is dishwasher safe!

United Kingdom Floral Teacup and Saucer – $24.99

The teacup and saucer set matches the teapot with an image of Minnie Mouse sipping tea on one side.

The floral Minnie Mouse head outline and “Queen of the Kingdom” appear on the opposite side.

The cup and saucer are packaged together as a set.

The inside of the teacup is pink and says “Fancy a Cuppa?” in purple.

The saucer has an all-over print with the floral Minnie Mouse head outline and flowers.

United Kingdom Floral Plate – $16.99

The plate is light blue with the floral teapot outline and “Fancy a Cuppa?” printed on it.

United Kingdom Floral Apron – $34.99

The floral apron is light blue with hidden Mickey flowers along the bottom.

The teapot with “Fancy a Cuppa?” is printed on the chest of the apron.

The apron ties are navy blue.

The pockets on either side also have navy accents.

Will you be stopping by the UK Pavilion to pick up any of these new items? Let us know in the comments.
